@hawild unplug the unit from the outlet and let it sit for awhile. Then try again. Keeping it unplugged should reset it. you can also try to hold the "Drain/Spin" button and the "Start (Press & Hold)" button at the same time for no less than 3 seconds

My dryer may be different from yours but i held the cancel button down for about 10 seconds. after that, the start button worked normally
